Alarm input, output description:
Step 1
Connect alarm input device to the alarm input of I/O port cable.
Step 2
Connect alarm output device to the ALARM_OUT and ALARM_OUT_GND of I/O port cable,
Alarm output is the relay switch output; alarm output port can only be connected to NO (normally
open) alarm device.
Step 3
Open the WEB, set alarm input and output correspondingly in alarm setup. Alarm input on the
WEB is corresponding to that of the device I/O port cable. When there is alarm, alarm input
device will generate signal of high and low level. Set corresponding NO and NC inputs.
Step 4
Set alarm output on the WEB, the alarm output is corresponding to the alarm output end of the
device, this is the alarm output port of the I/O port cable.
Please refer to the following figure for alarm input and output information. See Figure 1-4.
Alarm input: When the input signal is idle or grounded, the device can collect the different
statuses of the alarm input port. The input signal is connected to 3.3V or is idle; the device
collects the logic “1”. When the input signal is grounded, the device collects the logic “0”.

Figure 1-6
Mode A:
Level application. Alarm output high and low level, alarm output is OC; it needs to increase pull-
up resistance externally to work normally. Max external pull-up level is 5V, max port current is
5mA. After external pull-up resistance is increased, the default of output signal is high level
(external pull-up voltage), and it switches to low level when there is alarm output (when the
working current is 5mA, output voltage is less than 0.8V).
Mode B:
Switch application. Alarm output is used to drive external circuit, max current is 30mA, max
voltage is 5V, it is advised to add a relay if it is beyond the value.
